Now a co-owner at Phoenix Rising, Drogba's "other projects" are thought to refer to him producing another MLS franchise. Much like David Beckham is attempting in Miami. "It's good to play, but at 39 [age] holds me back a bit".

Drogba the president or coach?

The Ivorian now plays with Phoenix Rising FC in the United Soccer League.

In total he played 381 times for the Blues, scoring 164 times; Drogba also won the Premier League on four occasions, the FA Cup four times and netted the winning penalty when Chelsea beat Bayern Munich to win the UEFA Champions League.

He proved that he still had that natural killer instinct in front of goal by netting 10 goals in 14 appearances before Rising were knocked out of the play-offs by Swope Park Rangers.

Chelsea fans honour club legend Didier Drogba with a banner at Stamford Bridge.
